This is what needs to be done and thanks to sites like Twitter and to citizen journalism, it can happen. Papa Johns was alerted to the beyond odious post on Wonkette and, as a result, they say they are taking steps to ensure their ads no longer appear on the sewer slime trash site.
@robertcurlin Thank you for alerting us to this. Weve taken steps to make sure our advertising doesnt appear on that site in the future. about 3 hours ago via HootSuite in reply to robertcurlin
If you choose to be disgusting and vile in order to garner the attention you so desperately crave, dont be surprised when that attention backfires when those with common decency are outraged and call you out on it. And when advertisers use their right to pull their ads from sites that publish absolute filth. Well done, Papa Johns.

This is the piece of shit responsible for it.
Yep, thats the piece of shit.
Good for them!
Yup. Fat Jack himself.
I think the best bet is targeting Coca Cola. After all, children must be a huge part of their consumers. Bravo to Huggies and Papa John’s.
Looks like he’s been separated at birth with Michael Moore.
